Our Team

Leonie Cutts and Craig Browne, the well-known innovative partnership behind CCS Corporation, teamed-up with coding expert, James Oliver* of Destined, to take on the challenge of eradicating social isolation in aged care -- one meaningful interaction at a time.

With over 30 years of experience in creating hugely popular games and game-like learning and development products, their creations have been used all over the world in entertainment, education, counselling, healthcare, manufacturing, finance, IT, transport, federal, state and local governments, and more.

This dynamic team are now channelling their expertise to foster enjoyable, meaningful human connections between carers and clients, and families and their ageing loved ones, with an innovative app called, CARISA.

Based on their proprietary digital photo elicitation products and methodologies (known as CCS Cards and the CCS Virtual Facilitation Environment), CARISA is an easy-to-use mobile application that provides game-like image-driven activities that anyone can do. This gives carers a simple tool for providing clients with social and emotional support, and gives families a way to have better interactions and visits.

The team is based just south of Newcastle, NSW, Australia.
